  - [deleted] 4
    - oh, the checklist is for YOU, not here, i know she has one. i just meant if she's an 'online chatter' the forums there are FULL of women like her - Andie Apr 19, 08:04 1
      - [deleted]
    - Dumb question, but are you her 'MOH'? or her "Oh Shit Guy"? -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 19, 08:04 1
      - [deleted]
  - And then if you find out this stuff is actually due in the 3 weeks her mom has selfishly set aside to deal with a family tragedy....you can stock on - Will Hunting Apr 19, 08:02 3
    - [deleted] 1
      - she just wants her mother there to hand over the credit cards. -- nm - Diva Apr 19, 08:09
    - yeah, i totally agree. i mean, yes, you want to get stuff checked off, but, none of this is life or death, nothing. -- nm - Andie Apr 19, 08:03
- *thanks god Kelly was nowhere, like remotely in the same universe of Bridezilla as this* - Will Hunting Apr 19, 07:52 2
  - Well, yeah, my favorite word putting the wedding together was "whatever". - kelly Apr 19, 08:09
  - Well, yeah, my favorite word putting the wedding together was "whatever". - kelly Apr 19, 08:03
- I'm pretty certain the fiance really does think that three weeks is too much. -- nm - Roger More Apr 19, 07:51
- "how inconsiderate of him to go and die and affect your wedding" -- nm - Beaker Apr 19, 07:51
- MOH needs to be help out more, until Mom gets back in town. -- nm - Strongbad Apr 19, 07:51
- I'm sorry to offend your friend, but how does she function in society? She is on the shakey girl level. -- nm - MDH Apr 19, 07:50
- wow. Has she always been like this? Or is the wedding making her this way? -- nm - sycor Apr 19, 07:49 7
  - [deleted] 6
    - it is like alcohol, it brings out one's true self. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 19, 07:52
    - And by like this, I mean so co-dependent. I get that it's overwhelming to plan a wedding. But she seems a little to the extreme. -- nm - sycor Apr 19, 07:52 4
      - [deleted] 3
        
        Well, it just seems she feels she cannot make a decision alone. Or she doesn't want to make a choice. Which I'm sure is the stress of the planning. - sycor Apr 19, 07:59
        
        "But... but.. but... I've been planning this day since I was 2 years old!!!!" -- nm - BZ si Apr 19, 07:56
        
        ugh. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 19, 07:55
Speaking of 4/20. I never really understood the point. So, as a pothead, you set aside this day to smoke *extra* pot? But then again I guess you - sycor Apr 19, 07:44 16
- ~I was gonna march and protest, but then I got high~ -- nm - CrankYanker Apr 19, 08:03
- No. The intention of the day is to bring attention to the failed drug war. That never really happens and it turns into a day of marches where people - Krusty Apr 19, 07:48 11
  - Interesting. I don't think I've ever heard of this. Most of the people I know just plan to sit at home and smoke. -- nm - sycor Apr 19, 07:50 1
    - That's the problem. The original intention has been lost without a true leader to stand up take the responsibility. It's a third rail still in - Krusty Apr 19, 07:57
  - [deleted] 8
    - Clearly they're doing a poor job since everyone just thinks it's a day to smoke pot and blatantly break the law in public. - Krusty Apr 19, 07:54 7
      - [deleted] 1
        
        A lot more. Other than NORML I don't think one person could name another group fighting to end the war on drugs. And NORML is only interested - Krusty Apr 19, 08:04
      - I believe several states have ballot initiatives this year with regards to MJ, so that will be interesting to follow -- nm - con_carne Apr 19, 07:57 4
        
        Until the feds get their heads out of their ass it all feels meaningless. Aren't they back to busting dispensaries around Cali? - Krusty Apr 19, 08:01 3
        
        Eh, it's not that many. Seems like it's done to a few just for show. -- nm - con_carne Apr 19, 08:03 2
        
        So wrong. :-( I am so jealous. You guys can walk into a store and buy weed. I can't get over that. - Krusty Apr 19, 08:05 1
        
        Yes. And the shops are everywhere. In my city, at least, and I'm sure in others. It's... an interesting scene. -- nm - con_carne Apr 19, 08:08
